    These are a couple of my favorite vases. I now know these are Murano, by the style of the "Made in Italy"sticker and the type of glass is Avventurina. Any info. on these vases would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

      This is a handy site for labels:

      Thanks Vet!!! This information was fantastic! Sounds like an amazing and tricky process to create Avventurina glass. I book marked the pages and will reference these often I'm sure. :)

      As VET pointed out to Wayne Murano label page (20th Century Glass), here are some others to note also:

      Anne's Site (affiliated with Glass Messages):

      Anita Site (along with the Murano Glass Zoo Animals):

      ...And just another site worthy to look at:

      Nice piece you have found -- and with the Murano Labels!!

      These are great Anitiquerose. All fantastic sites. I know I'll be referencing them often. Much appreciated. Im so new to glass and lost. But I do love it, and find all the information I'm learning amazing. CW friends have been such great help!
